Zephyr_Prime Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Thank you for suggesting I look at my firewall. Although not the issue, it led me to this: http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/696147-unable-to-log-into-nmm/ By following the above suggestion, my problem is now resolved and I can once again enjoy NMM :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeddBate Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I'm posting this just in case anyone else is having a similar problem and it helps them. Ever since the switch to the CDN file system, I've only been getting an average of 4.5kbps when trying to download mods fromt the Nexus. Yes, that slow. So downloads for me have been basically impossible (unless the file was less than a megabyte.) I was getting the automated "do you want to update?" pop-up everytime I booted my NMM, but when I selected OK, it would simply stick on the download. So for the last few days I have tried a manual download. Unfortunately, the speed was still stuck at about 4.5kbps and the download would lock up after about 3 minutes of attempting to download. I went through the usual troubleshooting:1) Tested general speed of my ISP. Results: avg 22mbps download. Tested locally and in the UK. So, that wasn't the problem.2) Firewall. Nope, not blocking.3) A/V. Also not blocking.4) NET frames. Intact.5) Browser: Firefox. Not blocking.6) OS: Win 7. Checked for patch conflicts and did a rollback just to experiment. No effect. Since it has been posted earlier that the CDN file servers would "learn" how to serve requests better as time went on, I have tried to manual download every night in the hopes that the speed would improve. Tonight, speed jumped from 4.5kbps to an average of 28kbps. Now, I know that less than 30kbps is still rather pathetic but it allowed me to download the new 52.1 version in just over 3 minutes. So that was quite acceptable. Installed the new version then tried to download a nice fat 10+MB mod. Worked good. Got an average download speed of 675kbps. Much, much better. Hopefully the download speeds will continue to improve for me as time goes on. Hope this helps anyone that's been stuck with the update/slow download speeds like I have.

flyddon Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Well I am not happy! I paid the premium price to get the premium membership to help this site and to get better DOWNLOAD SPEED, and for the last 3 weeks 4kbps or slower. My upload and download speed on other sites and for work are great, between 20 and 30 Mbps . I hope things turn around soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't able to update through NMM, had to do a manual download. Once I finally was able to get that done my download speeds immediately climbed up to close to a meg.

Datenshi888 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I'm not sure if this has been mentioned somewhere before or not but... For those that can't download any files at all (both with NMM or manually) it would appear that it is indeed a DNS issue. You can (temporarily if you want to revert settings later) fix that by switching your DNS server. For example switching to Google open DNS fixed it for me (https://developers.google.com/speed/public-dns/docs/using#setup). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hellra1z3r Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 So is this what has been going on? I've been trying to download a file for hours and I'm still unable to... I see this post has been posted in July, why is the problem still going on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flyddon Posted September 3, 2014 Share Posted September 3, 2014 @Enthusiast yes I am up-to-date with NMM. :blush: What I don't understand is where did the premium download servers go ? Before when I downloaded (BEFORE CDW) there was a list of premium download servers. Now I am in the mix with everyone else. One of the main reason I purchased this member ship and agreed to the contract was for:Membership provides an improved service including an ad-free browsing experience, uncapped downloads and the ability to download files faster by multi-threading your downloads, Premium-only file servers, Has this been removed ? Did you change the agreement Mr. Scott ? Or is there some other setting I need to change. Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
